Mandala Opus #7 - Poema Dell'Estasi

1997 · 17m

The chromatic research based mainly on primary colors yearns for the incandescence of red, for strong tonal contrasts, with the gaze turned to an anti-naturalistic, subjective, internalized color, which looks to the Fauves, Munch and German Expressionists but also to Boccioni and Picasso for the metamorphosis of the human figure (here the female body) and his struggle against Euclidean geometry; to the Suprematists and Constructivists, cited in the geometric forms: sharp spiers of piercing light, flashes of lightning, triangles like blades that cut the screen and chase the evanescent bodies in the dark.
